Armour of God II: Operation Condor (Chinese title: 飛鷹計劃) is a 1991 film, directed by and starring Jackie Chan. It is the sequel to his hit Armour of God. It was produced by Golden Harvest / Paragon Films. It was filmed primarily in Madrid, Spain and Morocco.
This film is even more akin to Indiana Jones than Armour of God, in that it features Chan's character Condor ("Asian Hawk" in the US release) battling against a former Nazi to retrieve gold from an abandoned base deep in the Sahara Desert. In one scene, Jackie escapes his persecutors in a zorb.
Because this film was released in the US several years before Armour of God, its US title is simply Operation Condor. When the first film was eventually released, it was somewhat confusingly given the title Operation Condor II.
Agent Jackie is hired to find WWII Nazi gold hidden in the Sahara desert. He teams up with three bundling women (the 3 stooges?) who are all connected in some way. However a team of mercenries have ideas on the ownership of the gold. A battle / chase ensues as to who gets there first. Lots of choregraphed Kung-Fu and quirky Chan humour. Written by Matthew Stanfield
Jackie is a talented special agent who is used for dangerous undercover work. The government employs him to try and find some gold that the Nazis allegedly left in Northern Africa 40 years ago. He soon discovers that he is not the only one searching for the gold; there are people willing to kill to get their hands on it. Written by Murray Chapman
